Support Gov. Umahi's Effort In Transforming Abakaliki Capital City-Stanley Okoro Emegha
The special Assistant to Ebonyi state governor on capital
territory, Hon. Stanley Okoro Emegha, has urged the good people of Ebonyi state
to complement the effort of Engr David Umahi led administration in its bid to
transforming the Abakaliki capital city into a world class mega city. He made the appeal while on routine
inspection of water fountains and other facilities within the metropolis.
He frowned at the way and manner some unscrupulous elements
destroys government facilities with reckless abandon, without recourse to the
fact that government expended huge resources and energy in putting such
structures and facilities in place. He therefore, warned that government will
henceforth, deal decisively with anyone caught vandalizing or damaging any of
its facilities or installations within the state capital as adequate measures
has been put in place to monitor, apprehend and subsequently prosecute those
sabbortagging government efforts in turning Abakaliki into a mega city and flash
point of tourist destination.
Hon. Stanley Okoro Emegha reiterated that Engr Umahi’s
administration is fully committed in ensuring the sustenance of the current
aesthetic nature and serenity of the capital city, he therefore, enjoined the
general public to always adhere strictly and avoid contravening what he called
‘’urban renewal commandments’’ which includes but not limited to; Vandalization
of decorative lights and water
fountains; vandalization of street lights installation and accessories;
abandonment of broken down vehicles along the streets and indiscriminate
outdoor advertisement / mounting of billboards. Others are; street hawking and
display of goods on the road within the capital city; stray animals / grazing
of cattle within the capital city; vandalization of water pipes and water
installation facilities; dumping of refuge inside drainage and indiscriminate
cutting down of trees within the capital city among others.
You may recall that Engr Umahi’s administration has painstakingly
turned around the infrastructural fortune of Abakaliki capital city with the
construction of three fly –over bridges to ease traffic congestion and
eradicate perennial accident occurrence; water fountains in strategic location
adorned with magnificent decorative
lights to enhance the aesthetic value
and make the city’s night life a memorable one and the installation of
streetlight which covers over 80% of the entire capital city which is meant to
promote socio-economic life and improve the security of life and property of
the people. It is therefore, imperative that all hands must be on deck to
ensure the preservation and sustenance of these infrastructural legacies for
posterity purpose, Emegha maintained.celplusmedia.blogspot.com
